Srinagar, Aug 21: At its Made by Google event held in New York on Wednesday, August 20, Google introduced its latest lineup of wearables. The new devices include the Pixel Watch 4, Pixel Buds Pro 2, and Pixel Buds 2a, each packed with new features and design upgrades aimed at enhancing the overall user experience.
Pixel Watch 4
The Pixel Watch 4 is the latest in Google’s smartwatch series and debuts the brand-new Google Actua 360 display, offering 10% more active screen area and 16% slimmer bezels. The display is also 50% brighter, reaching up to 3,000 nits.
Powered by the Snapdragon W5 Gen 2 and a machine learning co-processor, the Pixel Watch 4 is now serviceable, meaning the display and battery can be replaced—an industry-first for Pixel Watches.
Key highlights:
Pixel Buds Pro 2
The new Pixel Buds Pro 2 bring several smart updates while keeping a sleek design and powerful sound features. These wireless buds also get active noise cancellation (ANC) and transparency mode with active in-ear pressure relief. Pro 2 gets three microphones, a motion-detecting accelerometer, and a gyroscope to help users accept incoming calls or dismiss them by simply nodding or shaking their heads. It is powered by a Tensor A1 chipset.
Key features:
Pixel Buds 2a
The Pixel Buds 2a are yet another addition to Google’s lineup of truly wireless earbuds. It is powered by Google’s Tensor A1 chip, allowing hands-free access to Gemini. The Buds 2a come integrated with ANC to provide users with a great listening experience.
Google also claims that with ANC on, the buds get seven hours of listening time and 20 hours with the charging case. And with the ANC off, the device can run for 10 hours and 27 hours with the case. And with a charging time of just 5 minutes, the buds can last up to one hour with ANC. The case also features FindHub to help users locate their buds if they go missing.
